Whitney Prior

Whitney Prior is an accomplished post-production and visual effects professional with more than 11 years of experience in the entertainment industry, including 9 years dedicated to television and film production. Her passion for storytelling began at an early age when, as a child, she created her own “family news station,” filming and producing stories for relatives using a video camera gifted by her parents. That early creative spark evolved into leadership roles throughout middle and high school, where she served as station manager of her school television stations and lead anchor for her district’s TV channel. Whitney later earned her degree in Radio-Television-Film from The University of Texas at Austin, where she concentrated in Stereoscopic 3D Production and further developed the technical and creative foundation that would shape her career.

Throughout her career, Whitney has specialized in post-production for scripted episodic television and streaming productions, working with major platforms including Apple TV+, Amazon, HBO, Netflix, Showtime, and Starz. She has contributed to a wide range of acclaimed productions, including the Emmy Award-winning series The Affair, and has become particularly known for her expertise in visual effects-heavy projects. Her experience spans collaborations with industry-leading companies such as Sony Pictures Entertainment and Blumhouse, as well as producing comedy specials and independent features for high-profile talent and streaming platforms. Whitney currently serves as a Visual Effects Producer and Post Producer with RTVS Texas while continuing to freelance on a project basis across television, film, and live entertainment productions.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Whitney recognized an opportunity to redefine how post-production teams collaborate globally and became a specialist in remote production workflows. Her ability to coordinate international creative teams with directors, editors, finishing teams, and producers working across multiple continents has made her a sought-after expert in streamlining remote post-production operations while maintaining the highest creative standards. A proud member of the Producers Guild of America, Whitney is driven by the collaborative artistry of filmmaking and the fulfillment of seeing a finished production come to life on screen. Her work reflects a rare blend of technical expertise, creative storytelling, and forward-thinking leadership in an evolving entertainment landscape.
